And in another, Bey cradles two infants on her chest while lying in bed.

But the Carters have yet to confirm if the other scenes really do feature their one-year-old twins.

Original post, 4:15 p.m.: Beyoncé and JAY-Z have blessed us with new photos of their twins, Rumi and Sir, while kicking off their joint On the Run II tour in Cardiff, U.K. tonight. Artistic images of the singer and rapper, carrying a child in each arm, appeared on the screen accompanied by the messages, "LOVE IS UNIVERSAL" and "LOVE NEVER CHANGES."

Though Bey often posts photos of her outfits and major life events on her website and Instagram, she's kept her youngest additions out of the spotlight. Rumi and Sir were born on June 13, 2017 and turn one year old next Wednesday. Perhaps the new photo was shared in honor of the upcoming occasion.

Beyoncé and JAY-Z just announced their On the Run II tour in March, serving as a long-awaited sequel to their combined On the Run tour in 2014. Following tonight's performance in Cardiff, the couple will make stops throughout Europe for the next month and a half before heading to North America starting July 25 in Cleveland, OH.

We can't help but wonder if Rumi and Sir will make an IRL cameo on stage, too.
